Why cry for a soul set free? Miss me a little, but not too long, and not with your head bowed low. Remember the love that we once shared; Miss me--but let me go. For this is a journey that we all must take, and each must go alone. It's all a part of the Master's plan, a step on the road to Home. When you are lonely and sick of heart, go to the friends we know. Bury your sorrows in doing good deeds; Miss me--but let me go. www.dreisingerfuneralhome.com
